67mm circular glass camera filter with textured surface

B + W Filter Company

B + W 67mm Basic Soft Pro Filter #65-1102811 camera filter

SKU CH-F9VD-KY9AP

A 67 mm diffusion filter that keeps fine detail sharp while scattering light into soft halos to lift shadows and smooth highlights for portrait and landscape work

  • Sharp core image with soft overlay via mini-lenslets on plano-parallel glass
  • Deep shadows illuminated while highlights stay crisp for shimmering aura
  • Fine details like eyelashes stay sharp while skin imperfections blur gently
  • Reduces high contrast and softens backlight fringes for romantic landscapes
  • Recommended for lenses 24mm+ full-frame or 18mm+ APS-C above f/16

Filter Construction

The B + W 67mm Basic Soft Pro Filter uses mini-lenslets on a plano-parallel glass disc to scatter light. This creates a sharp core image overlaid with diffuse halos that illuminate deep shadows while highlights remain almost unblurred. The effect produces a shimmering aura in darker surroundings.

Sustained Creative Effect

Under continuous shooting the optical behaviour stays consistent because the effect is physical rather than electronic. Mini-lenslets permanently scatter incoming light, so contrast reduction and fringe softening in backlighting do not drift with temperature or battery state. The romantic character of landscape frames remains stable shot after shot.

Thread Diameter Constraint

The 67mm thread size limits direct mounting to lenses with that exact filter diameter. Step-up or step-down rings can adapt other threads but add thickness and potential vignetting. Buyers needing a different thread must source a matching filter or accept the mechanical compromise of adapter rings.

Questions about this item

Does the 67mm Basic Soft Pro Filter generate any heat or consume power during extended shooting sessions?

No, the 67mm Basic Soft Pro Filter is a passive glass accessory with no electronics, so it produces zero heat and draws no power regardless of how long you shoot.

What lens thread size must my current lens have for this 67mm filter to mount directly?

Your lens needs a 67mm front filter thread; the filter screws straight onto that thread without any step-up or step-down rings.

Will the mini-lenslet effect work cleanly with my older 24mm full-frame prime stopped down to f/16?

The manufacturer recommends focal lengths of 24mm or longer on full frame and apertures wider than f/16, so at exactly f/16 you may see reduced effect or vignetting.
